Unexpected choices


[Spoiler alert: si aún no has visto Miami Vice (2006), no pulses play]

El domingo pasado estuve viéndola mientras planchaba y me pareció estrambótica: un español haciendo de narco colombiano, una china tratando de pasar por cubana y un irlandés travestido en hortera de Florida son demasiadas licencias poéticas. Madre mía: bigote de Hulk Hogan, melenas con mechas, trajes brillantes... no hay por dónde coger a Colin Farrell. Pero me quedé enganchada hasta el final, y es que la historia de Isabella y Sonny no deja de ser atractiva por ser improbable.

Es inutil buscarle la lógica, escribir este post es una respuesta emocional. Hace poco me han dicho que siempre me identifico con personajes de mujeres que van de duras, huyen del compromiso y sólo respetan a los hombres que logran vencerlas, pero tienen su fondo blandito (¿era así?). Personajes como el de René Russo en El Caso de Thomas Crown.

Puede ser.

I'm tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless lost under the surface
Don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
[Chorus]
I've become so numb I can't feel you there
Become so tired so much more aware
I'm becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you
Can't you see that you're smothering me
Holding too tightly afraid to lose control
Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
And every second I waste is more than I can take
[Chorus]
I've become so numb I can't feel you there
Become so tired so much more aware
I'm becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you
And I know I may end up failing too
But I knowYou were just like me
with someone disappointed in you
[Chorus]
I've become so numb I can't feel you there
Become so tired so much more aware
I'm becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you
[Chorus]
I've become so numb I can't feel you there
I'm tired of being what you want me to be
I've become so numb I can't feel you there
I'm tired of being what you want me to be.

[Linkin Park, Numb]
